Sitting at a desk in
the middle of the city, it’s hard to imagine facing any obstacle other than
congested traffic if there was a dire need for immediate medical assistance.
But for people living and working in rural areas around the world, the
challenges in timely and quality healthcare create the chasm between life and
death.
Death and serious
injury accidents account for 60 percent of total rural accidents vs. 48 percent
of urban accidents, according to the National Rural Healthcare Association.
Aside from longer delays due to travel distance from Point A (accident) to
Point B (healthcare), rural areas also suffer from inadequate numbers of
designated and/or qualified healthcare professionals. The same report from NRHA
shows that anywhere from 57-90 percent of first responders in rural areas are
volunteers.
Small-cap innovator
Kallo, Inc. aims to improve the quality and efficiency of care by providing a
suite of centralized congruent solutions that address healthcare and business
issues for ministries of health, hospitals, physicians, and other healthcare
organizations. In particular, Kallo RuralCare™ systems are pre-fabricated,
pre-tested modular- and project-determined healthcare delivery solutions that
within a week’s time can be implemented in rural or disaster-struck areas.
These modular
systems are installed with the latest medical equipment from X-Ray and
ultrasound to surgery, lab, and pharmacy equipment. They also include
medications, a patient exam room, an operating room, imaging room, dispensary,
kitchenette, laundry, and shower.
In addition, Kallo
MobileCare™ is a comprehensive solution for remote and unreached communities.
These mobile clinics are fully equipped with medical devices and congruent
information systems, serving as a centralized coordination of resources and
communications by linking via Telehealth to response centers where specialists
provide secondary support to address the lack of professional resources in the
rural area.
The Republic of
Guinea has recognized the incredible value the RuralCare™ and MobileCare™
solutions contribute to preserving human life. As part of its healthcare
Millennium Development Goals, the Minister of Health and Public Hygiene has
launched a $200 million healthcare project to reduce infant mortality, enhance
maternal health, and deliver a high standard of health in Guinea.
Per this contract,
Kallo will commence implementation of its RuralCare™ and MobileCare™ systems in
the first quarter of 2014, and for 24 months thereafter will provide mobile
clinics, polyclinics, utility vehicles, and ambulance services to the people of
Guinea.
Not only does this
project address immediate and long overdue medical needs in Guinea, but will
also provide education and training services to Guinea’s healthcare workforce,
and demonstrates the incredible market potential Kallo has in targeting the
challenges of rural healthcare worldwide.
